Adobe Creative Cloud provides all the tools you need to go from script to screen and beyond to create your greatest work. It gives you the very latest versions of the tools and services you love, coupled with more efficient ways to collaborate with your peers and share your work with the creative community. In this video, Adobe Evangelist Jason Levine showcases many of the tools, including Adobe Premiere Pro CC, After Effects CC, SpeedGrade CC, Prelude CC, Story CC Plus, and Adobe Audition CC. You can now access Creative Cloud from the web, from the applications you love, from your desktop, or even from your mobile device.

He'll step you through the basic process to leverage this unique filter for reversioning and remixing mono and stereo material, as well as the basic technique to create 5.1 listening experiences sourced from mono or stereo masters. The video includes a peek at the unique Center Channel Extractor filter, which can be used to isolate vocals from stereo recordings or even remove them.

Matching the look of clips can be a tedious task. Shot Matcher lets you work faster by automatically correcting for subtle differences in footage to achieve a consistent feel between clips, within scenes, and across your entire project.
